This is likely not going to sit well with many of you, but we live a mile back on a gravel road and plan to be here for several years yet so I looked at options for the bottom of the body to eliminate concerns with rocks thrown up from the tires. I considered LizardSkin, but did not see that it added enough advantage to justify the cost delta and installation hassles. My Jeepin' buddy's swear by HercuLiner, which is a bed liner material applied with brush & roller, but also used for Jeep tubs, undercoating and general tough protection duty. Love it or hate it, that's what I did for the bottom of the body and I really like the way it turned out. I masked off the area where the body sits on the frame. They say two coats minimum, and I got four out of the gallon with only a tiny bit left over, and the look improved drastically with the third coat. It's tough as nails, and I believe it will also quiet the road noise considerably.
